I saw this question when you posted it in the other place, and must admit to being a little perplexed. Why would you want to travel from your new place of duty to your old place of duty to spend weekends and leave? Is the new place that bad that you cannot bear to be there, or can you not face the thought of being separated from your oppos? Do you not have a place that you still think of as 'home', perhaps your parents' house?

You're in a strange situation. I'm assuming that your promotion to Sgt and detachment happened at the same time, hence why you have moved straight from the ORs accom to the Sgts' Mess at the new location.

The good news: As your detachment is less than 6 months you are entitled to retain SLA at your permanent location.

The problem - you've been issued a NAC which indicates there is no SLA available at your permanent location. This will entitle you to be accommodated in Substitute SLA.

The bad news: SSLA can only be retained for up to 61 days when absent on detachment. Therefore, if you had moved from the ORs accom into SSLA then you would still have to move out for the detachment because it is over 61 days.

There is the possibility that the Local Service Commander could authorise the retention beyond 62 days. Given that you haven't actually moved into SLA yet I would imagine this COA is highly unlikely.

Best option? Get your name on the waiting list for a room in the Sgts' Mess. If you don't get a room by the time you return then you will have to be offered SSLA or possibly a misappropriated SFA.
